WASHINGTON, D.C. - The Society for Neuroscience (SfN) is pleased to recognize the Dana Foundation as the Sponsor of the Day for Saturday, November 14, the first day of Neuroscience 2026.

"The Dana Foundation has been a tireless supporter of the neuroscience community, and for decades, the Dana Foundation and SfN have shared a commitment to advancing neuroscience and expanding its impact on society," said SfN President Nick Spitzer, PhD. "We are grateful for the Foundation's support as a Platinum sponsor of Neuroscience 2026 and for its longstanding support of SfN's annual meeting."

The Dana Foundation will be recognized throughout the day on Saturday, November 14, including at the day's plenary Presidential Special Lecture. As a Platinum sponsor, the Dana Foundation will also be recognized before, throughout, and after Neuroscience 2026.

Through its mission to support neuroscience that benefits society and reflects the aspirations of all people, the Dana Foundation funds education, training, and public engagement on issues at the intersection of neuroscience and society, including the ethical, legal, and policy implications of advances in brain science. It also fosters dialogue and collaboration across the neuroscience and society community.

"We look forward to connecting with members of the neuroscience community and being part of the exchange of ideas that makes this meeting so rewarding."
